What i got from this module is that you will always have an impact of students so plan for that. lead by example. Gain their attention. Make them interested and excited about what will be going on in the class room that day. In the end even if they dont act like it, they will be greatful for what you have taught them
Being an instructor is more than just disiminating information. To be a successful instructor I have to remember to show compassion, I need to be commited to my students, and I need to remember that I am modeling professional behavior to my students. I need to be excited about the content and opportunity to share my knowledge and experiences. I need to be willing to better myself for the good of the students.
As an instructor I need to have technical competence, professional competence, and personal competence so that I can effectively model, manage and motivate students. To be an effective instructor that creates and maintains a positive role I need to be credible, candid, compassionate, committed, and clear. I plan to apply what I learned to help develop my instructional style...which I have no idea what my particular instructional style is.
By watching the videos and listening to the procedures of becoming a better educator/instructor, I have learned new ways of doing a better job in the classroom .
great stragaties to impliment
The section on professionalism being constant was very interesting to me. I agree entirely but have not seen that written before.
"Model, manage and motivate"
In a addition, be humble and be profession
but do show your ability in front of the students in the first class meeting
Continue growing as an instructor by attending post degree certification courses and tranining.
It is important to know the content you are teaching, but it is just as important to present the content in a format that the students can understand.
Go in prepared, not at the last minute. SHow your students you love what you do and teaching on.
I have learned to develop my skills as an instructor. This course has taught me to focus on improving my instruction techniques in the classroom. In addition, this course has supported my professional development plan for continuing education.
To captivate and motivate, one needs to be prepared and willing to connect and to exude excitment about their field.
As an instructor, be humble, knowledgeable, organized, approachable, confident, professional, and willing to motivate.
I learned how important it is to model, manage and motivate your students and to be aware of having a personal professional development plan.
The success or failure of students is directly related to the type of modeling an instructor uses.
Reply to Teresa Aldi's post:One thing that always bothered me when I was in Nursing school was one of my professors was always late. She never held herself accountable but expected us to. Eventually she was let go.
